Q: Should I pressure wash the house myself or hire a professional?

• <div><p>Depending on the amount of experience you have with power washing or pressure washing, hiring a professional is likely a better option. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-use-pressure-washer.htm">Using a pressure washer</a> requires a bit of know-how to avoid damaging siding, trim, roofing shingles, and even the seals on your windows. Holding the pressure washer too close to the material you&rsquo;re cleaning can cause damage to the surface. You can wash your home&rsquo;s exteriors with a garden hose, but high-pressure cleaning should be done by professionals. </p></div>

Q: Which is better: a power washer or a pressure washer?

• <div><p>Pressure washers are better for residential use. Power washers are best suited for cleaning very hard surfaces (like concrete and cement) and removing tough stains or tacked-on grime. Meanwhile, pressure washers have more uses. For example, you can use one to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-pressure-wash-fence.htm">deep clean a wooden fence</a>, spray down your vinyl siding, or clear out your gutters.</p></div>

Q: What do you spray on a wood deck before pressure washing?

• <div><p>Before pressure washing, you can spray your deck lightly with a deck cleaning solution made of equal parts oxalic acid and water. Oxalic acid has a brightening effect that will lighten mold stains and return the deck to its original freshly-sawn look. Allow the solution to sit for about 20 minutes before pressure washing so it has time to take effect.</p></div>

Q: How long does professional power washing take?

• <div><p>Generally 1-2 hours, depending on the area and level of dirt accumulation.</p></div>
